I would like to take care of your babies! I started working with kids since the age of 14. Around that age I tutored and took care of children around the age of 4, 6 and 7. I've also taken care of my 4 nephews during their infant, toddler and preschool years. I'd describe my personality as responsible, fun and wise! I like working with kids because they keep you young at heart and we can always learn from them on how to be happy with the little things!

Hi! My name is Julia and I am 26 and live in Georgetown! I currently work remote in consulting in DC and I am looking for babysitting gigs on the weekends and after work starting around 6pm on weekdays. I am originally from Maryland and I have been consistently babysitting/nannying for a family with three children since I was about 13 years old. In Richmond when I attended the University of Richmond, I babysat a family with two young boys throughout the school year, I took them to school each morning and picked them up every afternoon. In Maryland, I also use a similar app called Napp where I have helped a number of families with childcare. I have plenty of experience with children of all ages, I have taken care of a newborn at the age of 4 weeks and up to kids in their teens! I am responsible, extremely organized, and just absolutely love kids! I would love to help families out in the DC-area!

Hello, my name is Wunmi, and I'm delighted to meet you! I'm new to the region and looking for my next babysitting job with a great family. I’m a kind, compassionate and trustworthy individual with a heart for children. I enjoy spending time with children because I adore seeing the world through their eyes. My child care experience spans all age groups, from infancy to adolescence. Activities done with children depend on their age and interests, some examples include playing in the park, hiking, singing, painting, and visiting the farm. I prefer to keep them engaged in order to keep their screen time to a minimum. When caring for a child, I also make an effort to put my phone away as much as possible so that I can give them my undivided attention. I’m looking forward to finding the next family that I’ll be working with both short and long-term. It’s important that we both feel we’re the right match for one another, so I appreciate you taking the time to read through my bio. I hope we connect soon. My references are available upon request.

Hello~ My name is MJ, and thank you so much for considering me as a caregiver to your family! I am based in Montgomery County, MD and I have listed my educational background and career for your review - - _________________________________________ Education (High School and College) Thomas Wootton High School 12' Montgomery College 14' (Associate's Degree) University of Baltimore 17' (Bachelor of Science) Career Background Commercial Real Estate (MD/CA) Signed Music Artist in Florida __________________________________________ As a caregiver, I primarily work with parents that need childcare after school, and I have listed different ways I utilize time with children to complete homework and engage in activities that will encourage a healthy balance between work and play! Based on the parents' preferences with how they would like their children to complete tasks/activities, I then cater the preferences with a light schedule such as: 1.) Decompressing after school 30~45 minutes 2.) Work on homework and any school-related projects 3.) Reading/Non-Screen time activities 4.) Upon parents' preferences, allowing screen time 5.) Food servicing/light cleaning based on parents' preferences _____________________________________________ Why I chose UrbanSitter as a caregiver: Personally, I like the strong standard in regards to caretakers having their background checked while also being able to communicate transparently with families prior to starting any job. I personally believe in meeting the family before any caretaking job after, having an introduction via UrbanSitter's platform first for the family comfort, alongside any professional references the families need from me, to properly screen me before moving forward to working I prioritize communication and servicing families based on standards and functionalities defined, by the parents to then support the needs of caretaking as an assistant, and also echoing what the parents would like from me 110% I will be more than happy to provide my resume // referrals upon request, thank you so much for your time and consideration!

Hi there! I am a 23 year old female student who is very passionate about working with children and animals. I recently moved back to Massachusetts to return to school. I have 5+ years of experience working with children as a babysitter, and have also held positions as a camp counsellor at both day and overnight camps. I am comfortable babysitting multiple children at a time, helping with schoolwork, household chores, cooking, and pet care. I, myself, have dog sat and been the owner of multiple small animals. I am patient, outgoing, talkative, easy going, and I like to have fun while still being able to ensure that children follow rules and get tasks done. I have been certified in CPR and lifesaving, and did partake in a babysitting course during my youth, but would be happy to have all of these certifications updated. I was also certified as an EMT during college, which has since lapsed but left me with many useful skills.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
